' The mode of operation and Jfunctioning I `of my novelV screen will now'be apparent upon referring tothe' drawings, 1n connec-V tion* with 'f the Vfollowing brief description.
A is is well known, flies and most species of If a room is darkened by lowering of the blindsV 1 .insects are strongly attracted by light.
therein practically alll of ,they flies will be found between the windowv panes 0r screens and the blinds. Also it is a fact of every day observation that flies upon the interior rid a room of insects and particularly .thereimthereby finding their wayinto the vtraeted to entertherein. In `this respect l `igure2 is a vertical section taken'on lineV fer the tunnel `wil-l havea dark-aspect in 'that may be made without departing from The window frame A comprisesl the dripl Letters Patent is:- i' 1. InA a screen of the vkind described, a
way comprising a diagonal.ebend'v in said '90 rect 'their vcourse to -thenpper partftheref of. In the present instance any flies that"v may be upon the mesh lO willfbe attracted by beamsof daylight entering thefopening 27 of the 'Hypassageway 'C and` will enter 60 outer atmosphere. `In this manner, aroom may in great measure ,be rid-'offlies without*` .resorting to kany directmeans to destroy 1 them. It is to be noted that Vfrom theoutside the 'passageway will appearV dark vto insects, which vconsequently Vwill not be at-` the fly l escape is` substantially similar inf theory to a tunnel, whereinrays of light on f the outside are Vstrongly accentuated/to per-* sons-on the inside, vwhile toy an outside beholdwhich objects may scarcely, if at all, be seen.- I have in practice founclthat the vmethod herein described kand illustrated' is very efficient for the purpose indicated.
